Answer:

-1.8%

There would be a decrease in demand of 1.8%

Explanation:

Cross price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded of good A to changes in price of good B.

If cross price elasticity of demand is positive, it means that the goods are substitute goods.

If the cross-price elasticity is negative, it means that the goods are complementary goods

Cross price elasticity = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price

-1.8 = percentage change in quantity demanded / 1%

percentage change in quantity demanded  = -1.8%

avanturin [10]

Answer:

Total amount of dividends paid over the last three years is $20500

Explanation:

The net income of the company is either retained in the company or paid out as dividends. To calculate the value of the ending retained earnings, we use the following formula,

Ending balance = Beginning balance + Net Income - Dividends

We first need to calculate the total net income for the 3 year period. The total net income for the 3 year period is, 3 * 6500 = $19500

Plugging in the available values for the ending and beginning balance of retained earnings and net income, we can calculate the value of total dividends paid for the three year period.

15000 = 16000 + 19500 - Dividends

Dividends = 35500 - 15000

Dividends = $20500

= $576 - $52

= $524

So, the cost of preferred stock is

= $150 ÷ $524

= 28.63%

We ignored the marginal tax rate i.e 40%

Burka [1]

Answer:

The correct option is (C)

Explanation:

To be able to claim somebody as a dependent, the person has to qualify 4 tests. They are:

  • Lineal descendant
  • Must live with the taxpayer for more than a year
  • Should be below 19 years or under 24 if a full time student
  • Cannot file return on their own.

If a person who is not a lineal descendant to be claimed as a dependent needs to be a part of taxpayer's household for 365 days (whole year).

In this case, taxpayer's cousin is not a lineal descendant. Rest of them (sister, father and son-in-law) are lineal descendants. So, cousin has to stay with the taxpayer for the entire year.
